Another cog usage question -SOLVED-

ratronic

Hi everybody, as long as I've been playing with the propeller, this is something I still haven't quite figured out. In the example below (just an example I'm not really trying to do this, just understand the cog usage)
I have the cog #'s returned commented to the side. I know the cog #'s returned are the actual cog # + 1. What I don't know is, are there two cogs acually running the spin interperter? Cog 0 running this program and Cog 1
running the spin methods from the started objects?

Zap-o

Nope start at 0 and count up from there. The main code is running in 0 most of the time.

Also note that one cog can run all the objects you listed. I dont like to waste cogs

Sorry about that, I just recounted and must had another brain fart!
